No man has a right to expect to succeed in life unless he understands his business, and nobody can understand his business thoroughly unless he learns it by personal application and experience.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
No man is a success in business unless he loves his work.
If a man can't manage his own life, he can't manage a business.
A man, to carry on a successful business, must have imagination. He must see things as in a vision, a dream of the whole thing. A man can cultivate this faculty only by an appreciation of the finer things in life.
The real test of business greatness is in giving opportunity to others. Many business men fail in this because they are thinking only of personal glory.
The secret of success in life is for a man to be ready for his opportunity when it comes.
No one has a greater asset for his business than a man's pride in his work.
It is a mistake to suppose that men succeed through success; they much oftener succeed through failures. Precept, study, advice, and example could never have taught them so well as failure has done.
I do not believe a man can ever leave his business. He ought to think of it by day and dream of it by night.
One secret of success in life is for a man to be ready for his opportunity when it comes.
Any man who goes into anything in life and does it better than the average will have a successful life. If he does it worse than the average, his life will not be successful. And no business can exist in which success cannot be won on that basis.
